Apple WWDC 2018 :All the announcements

Today’s Apple WWDC 2018 keynote just wrapped up in San Jose, California, and we covered all of the news live, including the headline announcement: iOS 12.

Apple CEO Tim Cook and his senior staff made this a software-focused keynote, with macOS 10.14 Mojave, watchOS 5 and tvOS 12 announcements in addition to iOS 12. There was no new hardware, though – last year’s conference gave us a first look at the HomePod, as well as the iPad Pro 12.9 and iPad Pro 10.5.

A lot was on the line for Apple for WWDC 2018. Google wowed us with its Google IO keynote and groundbreaking demos last month. Apple software had a lot to answer for, including the many annoying iOS 11 problems.

It wasn’t the biggest WWDC 2018, and some attendees we talked to referred to it as ‘underwhelming’. But what was delivered refined iOS 12 and other OS updates.

For developers, WWDC offers a chance to get an idea of what they’ll be working with in 2018 so they can start planning. They can download the iOS 12 developer beta 1 right now.

For everyone else, it’s a glimpse at the interface refinements for current iPhones, iPads, Macs and Apple Watches, and exciting new hints ahead of the theorized iPhone 9 and iPhone XI.
